Abstract

Eine Bedienvorrichtung (11) für ein Elektro-Kochfeld weist ein auf einer Auflage (12) aufgesetztes Bedienelement (14) auf. Unter der Auflage (12) sind kreisringsegmentartige Flächen als Signalgeber (19) vorgesehen. Das Bedienelement (14) weist an der Oberseite und an der Unterseite elektrisch miteinander verbundene zahlreiche kreisringsegmentartige Flächen (24, 22) auf, wobei die unteren Flächen (22) oberhalb der Signalgeber (19) verlaufen beim Drehen. Das Auflegen eines Fingers auf eine Berührungsfläche (24) an der Bedienelement-Oberseite wird direkt an eine Sensorfläche (22) an der Bedienelement-Unterseite gekoppelt und kann kapazitiv von einem Signalgeber (19) erfasst und von einer Steuerung als entsprechende Bedienfunktion ausgewertet werden.

An operating device (11) for an electric hob has a control element (14) placed on a support (12). Under the support (12) circular ring-like surfaces are provided as a signal generator (19). The control element (14) has at the top and at the bottom electrically interconnected numerous annular segment-like surfaces (24, 22), wherein the lower surfaces (22) above the signal transmitter (19) extend during rotation. The placement of a finger on a contact surface (24) on the upper side of the control element is coupled directly to a sensor surface (22) on the underside of the control element and can be capacitively detected by a signal generator (19) and evaluated by a controller as a corresponding operating function.
